59 Slap in the Face
Upon hearing that statement, the room fell abruptly
into silence.
Everyone turned their eyes from Samuel to Isla, completely dumbfounded.
Jake also looked at Isla in confusion. Whats going
on?
Isla bit her lip and directly addressed Samuel, The solution proposed by Dr. South for the Olsens was sent to us separately. It has nothing to do with your company. Youre just his assistant and have no knowledge about this.
Jake let out a breath of relief.
Isla continued. Mr. Morgan, is it about time to put an end to this? If thats what youre implying, theres need
to be so roundabout
She looked at Jake, Jake, Horton Group is not at a loss. Can Het go of this matter?

As expected, Jake was infuriated. Mr. Morgan! This is an internal issue of Horton Group. Its not your place
as an outsider to instruct us!
He had been respectful to Samuel because of Samuels role as Dr. Souths assistant.
It wasnt that he was actually afraid of Samuel.
Horton Group is the most prestigious family business in Oceanion. Very few can even catch his eye.
Samuel said, Actually, I am quite aware of this matter. Dr. South didnt send an email to Isla.
Jake scoffed, If Dr. South didnt send it, then how did Isla get the solution?
Samuel shrugged, Indeed, how did she get it?
Jake was taken aback, What do you mean?
Its quite obvious, Samuel pointed at Poppy. It was given by this lady! Wasnt it captured that she was copying something from a flash drive to Islas computer?
The crowd was dumbfounded.

Seriously, was that even a valid interpretation?!
Everyone was left dumbfounded for a moment.
Jake almost burst out laughing. Mr. Morgan, you mean that Keiras mother stole Keiras plan and gave it to Isla? Dont you think your words are rather
ridiculous?!
Whats so funny about it?
Samuel suddenly shifted his focus. Mr. Horton, do you
believe that what I said was correct?
Upon hearing this, everyone subconsciously turned their gaze towards Lewis.
Despite his silence, his strong presence was undeniably noticeable.
Lewis pondered slightly, and his deep, pleasant voice echoed in the conference room. Indeed, such an
interpretation is plausible.
At his words, the faces of several people in the room
changed.
Jake, not daring to vent his anger toward Lewis,

snapped at Samuel. So, are you saying that the plan belongs to Keira and not Dr. South?
Samuel chuckled, It belongs to Dr. South too!
Jake was confused.
On the other hand, Isla came to an understanding. Mr. Morgan, are you suggesting that the plan of Keira and Dr. South are coincidentally identical?
Now, Jake was genuinely irritated. So thats what youre aiming for! Not only do you want to clear your suspicion, but you also want to take credit for others work. Thats a brilliant scheme indeed!
He turned to look at Lewis once again. Uncle, is that what you think as well?
Lewis pursed his lips.
His eyes were deep and perceptive, sensing that something was off
With Samuels confident appearance and Keiras
upright posture ever since she entered the room, their relationship wasnt what he thought it was!

The idea he had once suppressed suddenly resurfaced.
He suddenly turned his gaze to Keira, his pupils slightly contracted.
Could it be?
Seeing that he was silent, suggesting that he tacitly agreed, Jake felt justified. I disagree! Uncle, I know Keira was brought in here because of your connections, and that Keira and Samuel are very close. But Dr. South came because of me, so I need to stand up for him. I absolutely disapprove of what youre doing. Youre tarnishing the integrity of researchers!!
His words resonated with the others.
Everyone turned their condemning gazes toward Lewis.
That was too much
The guilty party who stole someone elses work. Not only would she escape punishment, but now she was trying to take credit for it?!
This news, if spread out, could incite public anger
within the company

Tom was furious too.
What on earth were Samuel and Keira up to? It would
be good enough if they could shed the accusations, but now they wanted more!
How greedy.
Now, this situation had put his boss in the hot seat.
But since Lewis didnt speak up, as his assistant, Tom couldnt say much either. He could only seethe in silence.
Just as he was getting anxious, his phone buzzed, and he saw a link sent by someone from the secretarys office.
It was the companys internal network where an anonymous person had been live-blogging the contents of this meeting room.
Under that post, a crowd of people was already commenting.
Just because the intern is pretty, Mr. Horton is defending her. Is that it? This is really disappointing!

I stand with Vice President Jake. He speaks for the
researchers!
I originally thought the companys atmosphere had improved after Mr. Horton came into position, but now it seems like I was mistaken
An interns mother would help outsiders bully her own daughter? This mother is wrongfully accused. How tragic.
Im Dr. Souths fan, and its unacceptable that someone stole his work. Ill be the first one to object!!
I have to say, Im truly grateful that Vice President Jake was able to invite Dr. South to provide technical support. Working with Dr. South is the greatest honor of my life. Now, look at Mr. Horton, who did he bring into the company? An intern whos nothing more than just a pretty face. I have no words
If Dr. South feels wronged and resigns because of this intern, Im going to lose it!

The companys public opinion had already taken shape, and it was a hard blow to Lewis.
Tom, scared, quickly handed his phone to Lewis,
hoping the latter would change his defensive attitude toward Keira.
However, Lewis didnt even glance at the phone. Instead, his gaze was locked onto Keira with a complicated emotion in his eyes
Tom was dumbfounded.
Boss, at this critical moment, can you not be blinded by her beauty?
Just when Tom was growing anxious, the head of the Administrative Department stood up. Mr. Horton, I cant agree with this. It goes against my principles.
The rest of the Administrative Department staff also stood up.
I agree.
Dr. South is a respectable person. He should not be treated like this.

The dean of Oceanion University also frowned deeply. He dared not scold Lewis and could only yell at Keira, Miss Olsen, you have truly disappointed your teacher! Dr. South is a person whom we all respect. How could you do such a thing?
The Vice-Chancellor also shook his head.
Simultaneously, Poppy also took the opportunity to cry. Keira, we shouldnt make more mistakes
Isla looked down, and the corners of her mouth revealed a triumphant smile. Keira had become a street rat that everyone wanted to beat!
Jakes confidence surged, and he looked at Samuel. As Dr. Souths assistant, youre not defending Dr. Souths interests but scheming against her. Do you think youre being fair to Dr. South?
Instead of being angry at the accusation, Samuel simply smiled, Why dont we just ask her?
After finishing his sentence, he strode to Keira amidst the astonished stares of the people and respectfully asked, Dr. South, how do you think I am doing as an
